About this study
In plain language
This study collects health records and information about tissue and other samples from people with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, which affect the digestive system. It is for people treated at Canopy centers or their partner sites. It does not test drugs or devices; the goal is to support future research and improve cancer care.
The Canopy Cancer Collective Clinical Registry Protocol Non-Interventional Data and Sample Collection Registry Protocol Number of study sites 15 Study Design - Observational, registry Primary Objective To systematically collect and store comprehensive data on gastrointestinal cancer patients, encompassing both their past medical history and future clinical experiences, to address specific future research questions related to these malignancies, to establish and share best practices, and to support quality improvement initiatives focused on enhancing patient care and outcomes. Secondary Objective(s) 1. Leverage the collective to increase access to molecular profile and biomarker (ctDNA) matched clinical trials across the treatment trajectory. 2\. Use real world data and patient reported outcomes to improve patient care throughout the treatment trajectory. Research Procedure(s) Collection of clinical and outcome data and cataloging and facilitating access to physical biological specimens and their associated data for future research purposes. Drugs/Devices used on Study None Study Population Patients with diagnosis of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers who seek care at one of the canopy centers and/or their affiliates Sample Size Up to 30000 patients in the prospective component Up to 70000 subjects will be enrolled on the retrospective component Study Duration for Individual Participants Anticipated to be at least 1 year Study Specific Abbreviations AE: Adverse Event CEC: Clinical Events Committee CT: Computed Tomography iCCA: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging OS: Overall Survival PFS: Progression Free Survival
